If you do not weld much, buy MIG with a non-gas wire. A lot cheaper, the bottle is falling off and storage. It's a bit worse (a bit, as some say), but it does. I slept on the doorsteps in the Nissan Micra car, the broken bumper in UAZ (only the holes were burnt at the electrode), small things home and it's OK. I bought the welding machine with a half-wire spool of wire (it is much more expensive than usual) and for a year, even half of it did not come out.
✨ The discussion centers around recommendations for welding machines suitable for car bodywork under $500. Participants emphasize the preference for MIG/MAG welders over electrode welders, highlighting the advantages of using MIG with non-gas wire for cost-effectiveness and ease of use. A user shares their experience with a Chinese inverter welder, noting its reliability despite concerns about longevity. The conversation also touches on the practicality of self-shielding wire and the benefits of heavier transformer welders for consistent performance. Generated by the language model.
